TODAY'S PICKS

DAILY TRACK: Taken by Trees - "Lost and Found" Part of what makes Taken by Trees' Open Field work is there's not much content, lyrical or otherwise -- instead of getting heavy on you, she just makes you hum "Lost and Found" and give serious thought to opening that second bottle of red. Click HERE for more.

DAILY VIDEO: Fall Music Preview - Kevin Drew

DAILY REVIEW: Eddie Vedder - Into the Wild Shortly after Pearl Jam released Ten, a disillusioned twenty-something named Christopher McCandless dropped out of society, hitched cross-country and perished in the Alaskan wilderness. Now Eddie Vedder tells the young man's story on the soundtrack to Sean Penn's Into the Wild, tossing his weighty baritone onto earthy, folky tracks that temper the romance of absolute freedom with an eerie foreboding.
